Revisionsist history with Wood now that we're sitting at 8th in pairwise without him
UConn MHOC 2024-25
- Thread starter Bomber36
- Start date
I think this team is really tight....noticing the little things. their pregame huddle always starts 15 seconds before the other team and ends 15 seconds after the other team...they want to be together.
heck, watching BU's huddle on Tuesday. four of the players were not even in the team huddle- they had a mini huddle on the side and a couple of other players were not in either...just standing back.

I posted it the day he transferred.
Look at my posts on the hockey board the past couple years. It isn’t coincidence they have panned out.

Wow, he was that bad? Because he was a first rounder and acted like his crap didnt stink?
Its for the best Wood left, he doesnt fit with this teams style. He has a good shot and handles the puck well for a big guy, but he seemed so lumbering and plodding up the ice. Also wonder if his linemates didnt feel pressure to feed him the puck as much as possible even it wasnt the best option.

-> 10. UConn continues hot streak in Hockey East
Is there a team hotter than Connecticut right now? The Huskies took care of Hockey East’s other Huskies over the weekend (wins of 5-2 and 7-1 over Northeastern) to continue their scintillating 2025, earning their fifth win in a row to extend their current streak to 11-2-2 since the new year.
Looking for their first-ever NCAA tournament appearance, UConn is now eighth in the PairWise. The Huskies are currently fourth in Hockey East, three points behind Boston University, and look to lock up a bye in the upcoming Hockey East tournament with one game left, at Vermont on Thursday. <-

Playing in the Gutt midweek can sometimes be a challenge. Out of the normal routine of things and all. Four hour bus ride in the morning unless they go up the evening before which would make more sense. UVM is enjoying a bit of a resurgence, so this game may not be the gimme that prior form would suggest.

Polls are nice. But the Pairwise rules at this time of the year. Beat Vermont. Win the first round, get to the TD. Those are the only important things now. Focus focus focus.UConn moves up a spot to #8 this week:

Agreed, but we all know why. It is what it is. The Frozen Four is the same way isn't it?

Fairer to the team that has to go to OT to get to the final by giving both teams a day of rest? Allows the league to hand out awards with a ceremony on the off day? The Bruins are on a west coast swing so it is not NHL related.

Read online someone believed it was because they needed prep time for the World figure skating championship they are hosting. At least it is a 1 year blip.

The games are Thursday and Friday instead of Friday-Saturday. I don’t know why that is. It isn’t to get a day off in between. FWIW Celtics are on a road trip too so it isn’t that.

Yup, everything to play for. But playoff style hockey. Get it deep every rush, third guy always high. Bottle up the neutral zone. Do some hitting. Boring to watch but absolutely necessary at this stage.

UConn cannot finish 3rd. Only 4, 5, or 6

Is there something about a 3-way tie with BU and Prov where we somehow rise to 3? That seems to be what he's implying

Someone else can do the math to
prove or disprove the tiebreaker - it’s not a drug calculation.
